Evolution Sunday: Preach It, Brother!
Here's a surprising combination that I never thought I would read about. With today being the 197th birthday of Charles Darwin, ministers at several hundred churches around the nation preached against the recent efforts to undermine the theory of evolution.
Around 39 percent of those calling themselves Christian believe in theistic evolution, compared to 44 percent that follow the creationist view, otherwise known as Intelligent Design. Theistic evolution states that man has developed over millions of years from less advanced forms of life, but god guided the process, including man's creation. And if you're doing the math, that still leaves 10 percent of Christians who believe in naturalistic evolution.
